In a food mecca like San Sebastian, there are some places you just can’t leave without trying—and we’re going to visit them all tonight. Come with us to San Sebastian’s pintxos headquarters, the Old Town, where we’ve carefully chosen the best bites the city has to offer for you. As we go, we’ll teach you what to do—and what not to do!—so you can successfully navigate the pintxos scene during the rest of your trip.

- Don't miss a thing in a city known for its food—we've selected the best for you!

- Squeeze into a bar that's a San Sebastian institution for locally-caught seafood.

- Learn the unwritten rules of pintxos so you can eat like a pro during the rest of your stay.

- Enjoy classic pintxos in the classic style: standing elbow to elbow in bars packed with locals!

- Conquer all of San Sebastian's must-visit bars in one night.

I had a long day of traveling and mixed up my days and accidentally made a reservation for a tour in San Sebastián on the day I was traveling instead of the next day. We were only in SB for 1 day , I didn’t realize my mistake until the day of my expected tour! The tour was booked by accident the day before! When I tried to call to reschedule they were not able to help me one bit! Not even with a partial refund or any kind of credit! Nothing! It cost me over $400 for nothing! I admit it was my mistake but it’s so awful that the app I used to book it was so extremely unused friendly and even though it was my mistake I was hoping they could offer me something . I won’t be using this ever again, there are no recourses for mistakes ! I would suggest using Airbnb for any tour excursions. I was able to book the same day at a lower cost for the same type of tour.
A must in San Sebastián

Such a great way to be introduced to the town, region and local flair. Some interesting history, great small group and AMAZING FOOD AND DRINK! But the best was GORKA, our wonderful guide. One of the very best I’ve ever had. So attentive and personal. He made the entire time in San Sebastián extra special. Thank you!
Best food tour ever!

Gorka was the best guide we have ever had! He was informative, fun, inspirational and genuinely passionate about the food and wine of the Basque region. He took us to 5 sensational restaurants and we ate and drank such memorable dishes, that we would never have selected on our own. He made us feel instantly relaxed and it felt more like an evening with old friends than new acquaintances- what a gift! A truly exceptional night!
Delicious!
